Future Veterinarian... Current Tuskegee University Pre-Vet Student
About Jalen
Hi I’m Jalen! I’m from Tampa, Florida and currently an Animal & Veterinary Sciences major at Tuskegee University in Tuskegee, Alabama. I’ve loved animals my whole life and have been volunteering with shelters and petting zoos for several years. Though I’ve worked with several animals and reptiles over the years, dogs and snakes are my favorite. In my free time when I’m home from college, I love playing with my three dogs – Jazzmine, Mila & Rebel – and taking care of my pet rabbit (Hip Hop), axolotl, and saltwater aquarium. I also like playing the guitar, drawing, and watching anime.
